Yep.. there's 300+ Million guns out there. Let them stay out there, for the most part. But, if we were to heavily regulate buying guns now... eventually the numbers will fall as guns get lost, broken or even turned in.

Would your opinion be the same if they were grenade launchers?

WHAT!!?? you don't have an RPG at home !! Oh man . . . are you vulnerable !! What kind of "safe house" do you have ?

You're comparing a threat by a rational person against another rational person. With the mass shootings, it was an irrational (insane) person who burst in firing at anything that moved. If that robber had simply started shooting before he ever threatened, the outcome would have been quite different.

I agree. I'm okay with CCW but I'm not against better regulation at all, we need more of it and we need to close the loopholes.

Folks have been throwing these out left and right like they were the same situation as Aurora and Newtown. Even here, they are posting a police officer or sheriff's deputy in the parking lots of schools. An insane person is going to take out the officer first. Someone who has some self-preservation thought is not going to consider it. They are there to provide a false sense of security only. It's ludicrous to suggest that someone armed could have stopped any of the mass shootings. They simply happen too suddenly and too fast.

Newtown was 10 long minutes of horror that could have possibly been cut short.

The sad part is even having to consider guns in schools, which is how Aurora and Newtown totally differ.

Well , Columbine had and armed guard which resulted in a shoot out with one of the suspects which drove him into the library and he killed more students in there. From that point the (armed guard) waited for police to arrive. <- the guard was certainly no Rambo.

With that in mind - having 1 armed guard means (absolutely nothing) - a perp can simply walk around any guard (undercover) , more so if that guard is paid security .

Anyway I agree with you;If ya gonna throw more guns in school , lets do it with more pro-cops - this arming liberal educators with guns is totally stupid. I can see them trying to talk first and shoot 2nd, which is to late.
